Hi
I can't say anything on the plasma side of the patch. But some word regarding
Actions/ActionCollections.
KAction *configAction = new KAction(i18n("Widget Settings"), actions);
configAction->setIcon(KIcon("configure"));
configAction->setShortcut(KShortcut("alt+d, s"));
actions->addAction("configure", configAction);
The code is correct and will work that way. But we should try to get everyone
used to do:
KAction *configAction = actions->addAction("configure");
configAction->setIcon(KIcon("configure"));
configAction->setText("Widget Settings"))
configAction->setShortcut(KShortcut("alt+d, s"));
This is more future proof. If someone later decides to add an global shortcut
or just allow one things tend do go wrong with the first version.
The Developer just adds the relevant line. The following version won't work.
To set a global shortcut the action must have a id.
KAction *configAction = new KAction(i18n("Widget Settings"), actions);
configAction->setIcon(KIcon("configure"));
configAction->setGlobalShortcut(KShortcut("alt+d, s"));
actions->addAction("configure", configAction);
Swapping the last to lines would make it work again but i more often see:
KAction *configAction = new KAction(i18n("Widget Settings"), actions);
configAction->setObjectName("configure");
configAction->setIcon(KIcon("configure"));
configAction->setGlobalShortcut(KShortcut("alt+d, s"));
actions->addAction("configure", configAction);
This version works but you now have to manually make sure both id's are
identical. And they tend to not be identical or diverge later. Which will make
your global shortcuts stop working and your application printing out some
warnings.
